I'm going Crazy and I'm Transferred

mom and dad,

well first off, my address is the exact same as it was when i was in KK last time, do you still have it? if i remember right
B7-12 Maria Court Condominium
Lorong Api-api
Kota Kinabalu, Sabah 88000
Malaysia

I'll let you know if i get the mail. oh, and if you have any question you can just send it to the mission office, and that will come right to me, too.

I'll tell you one thing, family, it was so so so cool to come back to KK. i went to church, and after the meeting started, a lady walked in with her two kids. my last day in KK last year, was her first day at church. i got to sit next to her in Sunday school, and she was answering all the question, and it was so cool. and now her sister is baptized, whom i had only taught one time, and it was so cool to see people that i had worked with a lot still there at church, gosh, i don't think very many missionaries get to see that, and I'm really grateful. i love the branch here. i felt bad, like i was betraying Kuching, but one week here, and i love the people so much, and there are tons of new people i don't know, and it is so fun. and so crazy to be back in the old area, taking the same buses i took a year ago, seeing the same people that worked at the bus terminal a year ago, I've been living in the twilight zone for the last week! Goodwin is a great companion, and I've already learned a lot from her. its so fun to be with her, she is from San Fransisco, already graduated in history from Berkley, into music and food, i really think that she would fit right into our family. sorry, Matt and lance, she has a boyfriend. but i invited her over when we are going to Matt's house for his graduation. we'll bring some Indonesian karaoke. and she wants to go rollerskating with us too. but enough about that. me and sister Goodwin got name cards made, just enough for the rest of her mission, and we got this brilliant idea that they should have our pictures on them, I'm sending one of these name cards, they are awesome. you will see. so we are having fun and contacting people like crazy. the work is definitely different here, but it is good to be back.

oh and guess what? we just got back from Mt. kinabalu today, the whole time i was here last year i wanted to go, so we just went, we didn't hike all the way up, but it was sweet. the tallest mountain in southeast Asia. anyway, parents, i love you, so much, I'm so excited!

PS. since I've been back here, people have said that I've gotten skinnier, I've gotten fatter, I've gotten taller (which i actually think may be true, if that is even possible, I'm a solid 5'6", maybe a little above, and before i never was, is that possible?!) I've gotten prettier, my hair has gotten longer and my legs have healed. pretty good. i'll take it. and in relief society, when they announced that I'd come back, all the ladies clapped for me, so nice, huh?
